Cressida Bonas consistently dazzles with her impeccable style, whether she’s out on a casual day or attending a high-profile event.
The former girlfriend of Prince Harry was recently photographed alongside her actress sister, Gabriella Wilde, for a charity calendar benefiting The Lady Garden Foundation, which focuses on raising awareness for the five gynaecological cancers.
The calendar’s theme, “Women of Talent,” features the stunning sister duo surrounded by vibrant red flowers, their blonde hair entwined in the shot.
Their flawless complexions and minimal makeup, consisting of just a swipe of coral lipstick and a hint of mascara, highlighted their natural beauty. Cressida’s warm blonde hair was styled with soft bangs parted to one side, while Gabriella’s brighter blonde locks flowed in natural waves.
Other notable personalities featured in the calendar include Ama Pipi, Anna Friel, Camilla Rutherford, Charlotte Dellal, Joely Richardson, Lily Bertrand-Webb, Melissa Hemsley, Noor Fares, Petra Palumbo, and Savannah Miller.
Shot by photographer Lily Bertrand-Webb and with creative direction from Anouska Beckwith, the calendar also features motivational monthly quotes from icons like Frida Kahlo, Audrey Hepburn, and Rosa Parks.
Available for £60 on The Lady Garden Foundation’s website, the calendar supports an important cause.
Gabriella has often been referred to as Cressida’s “unofficial stepsister” since her father, John Anstruther-Gough-Calthorpe, married Cressida’s mother, Lady Mary Gaye Curzon.
Reflecting on their close bond, Gabriella shared, “There are just two months between Cressida and me, and although we’re not officially stepsisters, she was my best friend when we were little and we grew up together, so she kind of is anyway.”
Cressida, who has eight siblings and half-siblings, recently faced the heartbreaking loss of her sister, Pandora Cooper-Key, after a 24-year battle with cancer.
In a poignant tribute for The Times, Cressida, now a mother to a son named Wilbur, wrote about their relationship, expressing, “I wish I could talk to her about raising sons. She had already walked the path with her teenage boys, and I’m just beginning with my almost two-year-old.”
Cressida fondly recalled one of Pandora’s messages, which she had written down after giving birth to her son: “No matter what, they’ll always love and want to protect their mums.” She added, “Watching my sister’s courage will stay with me forever. Though she sometimes felt frightened, she was always brave, and towards the very end, she seemed to accept that she was dying. During my last moments with her, I got to hold her tight and say, ‘Thank you for being my big sister.’”
